Hey Mom,
This week was an interesting week. The last couple of
days I was in bed sick. I woke up in the middle of the night Friday and felt terrible. Friday
I spent all day in bed. We had to go to get food and I ended up throwing
up in the taxi on the way to the family's house. It was interesting.
We had to walk like ten blocks back to the house covered in vomit.
It was interesting. We took a good picture so I am hoping that you
like it. Yesterday we went to church.
We baptized Sebastion again last night. We made sure
it was done right this time. It was really good for him. He has had
so many problems. His grandma is Susana. His and Laura's mom is a
drug addict and when they were really, really young she left them in the hands
of their grandparents. Their mom never goes to see them and they really
don't know where she is. Sebastion is 14 and Laura is 13. They are
really young but old enough to understand what happened to their mom.
Because of this, Sebastion has developed a type of character from
this, I guess from hiding his feelings. But he is starting to
change, starting to develop relationships with some of the young men in the
ward. They have such bright futures. A great plan, Father in Heaven
has for them. We are starting to get Sebastion and Jonothan ready to
receive the Priesthood. It will be a wonderful day when they receive the
priesthood.
Susana gave us the good news that she is going to marry her
boyfriend Gerardo. (He is more like her Husband.) They have like 30 years or more together but
they never got married. Gerardo has been really closed to us and didn't
want anything. He is starting to open up. The Lord works his
miracles.
We are going to have a really good week this week. The
Lord knows me and my struggles and trials. To be honest the past month
has been probably one of the Hardest that I have had my whole mission.
Everyone keeps telling me that your last 6 months are the hardest of the
mission. I can see that. The Lord has a lot he wants me to learn.
I Love this gospel. I know that this is how we will be happy.
I love you so much Mom. Thank you so much for everything you do, for the
Love and support.
Always And Forever

My pico de gallo I made today... It turned out really
good. It reminds me of home.
And my puke stained shirt…
